10 REGRETS YOU CAN AVOID

Lou Costello said, “This was the best ice cream soda I ever tasted” and then he died.

I’m not sure if the final words of anyone have any meaning. But there’s the myth they might be words of magic, teetering on that border between Earth and…whatever.

My regrets can be summed up by the word: “Don’t”.

Don’t Buy Things…

Buy experiences. A thing is a house. An experience is a trip.

An experience is a visit to that girl or guy on the other side of the world who said, “maybe”.

An experience is an invitation to meaning instead of material.

Don’t Do Anything You Don’t Want To Do…

You think you have time to get out of it. But you don’t.

And then it happens. And then it’s too late. And then it’s something you did.

A black ink stamp leaving it’s mark on your wrist. You went to the party and the next day, all blurry and inky, it shows and everyone can see.

Don’t Try To Please People…

Nobody is more worthy of love in the entire universe than you. I wish I had reminded myself of that more.

I could’ve saved all of that time where I was trying to please someone else.

Money you lose you can always make back. But even five minutes of time lost is gone forever.

(“All of my possessions for a moment of time” – last words of Elizabeth I)

Don’t Fall In Love With Someone Who Is In Love With Someone Else…

These people are magnets of love. They’ve sucked all the love out of the room so when you walk in, it’s already too late, you’re past that zone in the black hole where nothing ever gets out.

When I’ve fallen in love with someone who was in love with someone else, only pieces of me have ever survived. And even then I had to put those pieces back together into the tinkertoy robot that became me for too long.

Don’t Make Promises You Can’t Keep…

You know who I mean if you are reading this.

Run. Don’t Walk…

I don’t mean run to a goal or a destination. There are no goals and you realize this around the age of 30 or so.

I mean just “run”. You build up your blood vessels. More oxygen gets to the brain. You get smarter. Life is better.

And you’ll see more in life than the people who are walking. Who take their time failing. Who take their time falling for others. Who take their time while waiting for the right moment.

yes, because everyone live for their own happiness.
Even if other person think that they are helping them, it’s right. But they are willing helping for their personal content and satisfaction, every pleases themselves in the life and not others. If they are wasting their time pleasing others, the think they don’t realize is they are having big expectation from the another person to be praised in return or some other kind of things to be fulfilled.
Pleasing someone in a real sense is taking half a minute of your time to genuinely praise their work (and not them) and pass by without expecting a thank you!
